Analyze Part Example (VBA)
This example shows how to perform a static analysis of a part and plot nodal
strain results.
NOTE: To get persistent reference
identifiers (PIDs) for model selections, you can use
pidcollector.exe
or IModelDocExtension::GetPersistReference3.
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Preconditions:
' 1. Add the SOLIDWORKS Simulation as an add-in
' (in SOLIDWORKS, click Tools > Add-ins > SOLIDWORKS Simulation).
' 2. Add the SOLIDWORKS Simulation type library as a reference
' (in the IDE, click Tools > References > SOLIDWORKS
' Simulation version type library).
' 3. Modify the path to solidworks materials.sldmat as needed.
' 4. Ensure the specified part exists.
' 5. Open the Immediate window.
'
' Postconditions:
' 1. Adds a default static study results plot.
' 2. Creates study Static-solid.
' 3. Applies material to the model.
' 4. Applies restraints and pressure to the selected faces.
' 5. Creates a mesh.
' 6. Runs the analysis.
' 7. Prints strain and stress results to the Immediate window.
' 8. Creates a nodal equivalent strain plot of the results.
' 9. Prints plot data to the Immediate window.
' 10. Hides fixture and force symbols. Examine the graphics area
' to verify.
' 11. Press F5 to continue.
' 12. Shows fixture and force symbols. Examine the graphics area
' to verify.
' 13. Inspect the plots.
'
' NOTE: Because the model is used elsewhere, do not save any changes.
